SDC36
TVS Diode Array for
Proximity Switch Input Protection
Description
The SDC36 is a high-surge transient voltage suppressor (TVS) optimized for protection of sensitive digital
sensors used in proximity switches and industrial
control applications. The SDC36 protects the components from over-voltages caused by electrostatic
discharge (ESD), electrical fast transients (EFT), and
tertiary lightning.
The unique design of the SDC36 incorporates two TVS
diodes in a compact SOT23 package for applications
where board space is at a premium. The single package provides protection for the I/O line and power
supply rail with high surge capabilities (2 Amps at
tp=1.2/50us) and an exceptionally low clamping
voltage of <45V.
The SDC36 replaces up to two large discrete diodes
providing the designer an easy to implement integrated
solution. The features of the SDC36 are ideal for
protection of two, three, and four wire DC high-side
proximity switches.

Applications Information
Device Connection for Protection of Two, Three, and
Four Wire Proximity Switches
Digital sensors help to bridge the gap between the
physical world and the digital world in applications such
as computer controlled factory automation. In such
environments, transient voltages can easily disrupt or
damage sensitive sensor inputs. The SDC36 provides
transient voltage protection for the digital sensors to
ensure their operation is not disrupted by the physical
world.
The SDC36 is designed to meet the high surge capability and low clamping voltage needed to protect the
ASIC and control logic used in proximity switches. The
SDC36 provides protection for the power and I/O lines.
Typical configurations for the protection of two, three,
and four wire switches are as follows:
SDC36
2-Wire DC Proximity Switch Application
3-Wire DC Proximity Switch Application
1. Two-Wire Switch: Connect pin 1 to the I/O line and
pin 2 to the DC supply (since the device is symmetrical,
these connections can be reversed). Pin 3 is not
connected.
2. Three-Wire Switch: Either pin 1 or pin 2 is connected to the I/O line with the other connected to
ground. Pin 3 must be connected to the DC supply.
3. Four-Wire Switch: Two device are required to
protect four wire switches. Pin 3 of each device is
connected to the DC supply line. Pins 1 & 2 are
connected to the I/O lines & ground as shown.
4-Wire DC Proximity Switch Application
